An Invitation from Mother SuEllen

I would like to meet with all of you, individually or in small groups. Please know that these chats are important to me, and to the future of this church. We need to know where we are starting from so that we can go forward together.

I am at Ascension Parish on Tuesdays from 10 A.M. to 2 P.M. I am also at the church Wednesdays through Fridays, when my schedule varies, so it is best to meet me by appointment. If you would like to schedule a specific time to meet with me, please give me a call at 971-200-0970. Remember, I do make house calls as well. I am here to be of service to you.

From the Archives

In 1994, the Ascension Parish Cookbook Committee published Ascension Treasured Recipes. Some of you may have a copy. For those who don't, there are a few in the bookcase in the parlor. I thought it would be fun to share some classics....

The Collect for the Ninth Sunday in Pentecost: August 10, 2025

Grant to us, Lord, we pray, the spirit to think and do always those things that are right, that we, who cannot exist without you, may by you be enabled to live according to your will; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
